Please check out the whole article about them on the Brownswood website, they deserve all the praise they can get! So spread the tunes, spread the word and share the love!
I FUCKING LOVE THIS!!!
Been on repeat in my head for the past 48 hours!
Big up Trust In Dust for letting me know who made this version!
Super duper busy today! So let’s go go go! x
New mix up on the cloud. Perfect start to the week if I may say so myself ;)
A bit of a mish-mash of feelings, thoughts, sounds, visions etc. Hope you like it and happy Monday! x
To balance out my guilty pleasure in the previous post, here is another tune I can’t get out of my head!
Nicolas Jaar – What My Last Girl Put Me Through Bluewave EDIT by Clown and Sunset
As a uhm… “tastemaker” I should probably not post this kind of music, buuuuuut…
1. I don’t care ;)
2. I’ve been singing it in my head since I left the house this morning
Considering dropping it in my set on Friday in Brussels but not sure if it would go down very well… hehe… we shall see :)
What can I say… First time I heard this EP I started crying.
Stand out tracks (for me) are “Maybe A Dream” produced by Om Unit and “Stormy Weather” produced by Kidkanevil.
Amenta is a very dear friend of mine and it fills my heart and soul with so much love and joy when I hear what a long way she has come musically (and in a way, despite it sounding cheesy, spiritually). This EP is such a fantastic representation of her I think. She is an extremely talented, brave and wonderful young woman, but just like the rest of us, also very vulnerable at times, and I think that all shines through, especially on the first and last track.
So well done L! I am so incredibly proud of you! xxx
Morning all!
Just read the previous entry, blaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah! Too serious and overly analytical for my own good, especially when I’m left on my own. Oh well, it is what it is, Im sure it will work out in the end.
Anywaaaay, couldn’t get this Weldon Irvine tune out of my head this morning… slightly fitting considering the circumstances.
I miss José… Wonder when he will be back in London, it’s been ages! Thinking back to him performing this song still gives me goosebumps. Anyway – the rain is pissing down outside, I’m done with all my work, so I think I might head off. Have a fantastic Friday evening my friends!
